Watch our video to learn how to hit the reset button at our Meditation + Mindfulness retreat at Willow Farm in Berry.

Sometimes we can get so busy we barely stop to catch our breath. Finding balance and the time to set the reset button can be tricky.

A nature based retreat, focusing on holistic health with a luxurious twist.

You can expect to be nourished from the inside out by immersing yourself in the practice of meditation + mindfulness and learn about where brain science and practice meet.

Develop your curiosity for new mindfulness approaches, and experience them first hand in unique guided meditations that have the power to upgrade your entire life.

The South Coast’s claim to fame may be its golden beaches, but its lush, forested rolling mountains has just as much to offer. Soul of Gerringong is a luxurious Hampton's style sanctuary for a Meditation + Mindfulness Retreat.

This retreat is for you if:

You have tried meditation before and wish to make it a regular practice in your life

You’re keen to take a deeper dive into the brain science behind meditation

You’re interested in using meditation for relaxation as well as for better brain health and increased energy

You want to become more resilient and able to grow through life’s many challenges using powerful breathing techniques, guided visualisation, mantra-based meditation as well as meditation

You understand the importance of self-care to nourish yourself from the inside out

What makes this meditation intensive weekend different?

Chelsea Pottenger’s own very real and personal experience with Post-Natal Depression put her on the path to build a community and brand that gives people permission to unplug from everyday life and spend precious time to nourish themselves, and to grow from the inside out.

This retreat, held in the beautiful South Coast of New South Wales, just two hours relaxing drive from Sydney, grew from Chelsea’s corporate clients asking for a special weekend to immerse themselves in the environment and learn the best mindfulness and meditation possible.

Where brain science meets practice

We understand the common fears about not being ‘able to meditate’ because of a lack of time, too much else going on, or maybe because you fall asleep when you do it. We get that. But when you understand the scientific connection between your breath, the state of your brain and your nervous system, the need to meditate suddenly gets real. It’s like taking yourself off to the gym – after regular visits, your muscles build and you get stronger. With meditation this is about practicing mindfulness, and rewiring the hardware inside your head for a serious brain upgrade. It makes you more resilient, better at managing change, and provides a sense of peace that only comes from within.

Ideally, if you have tried but not fully mastered meditation yet, this could be the perfect opportunity to develop your practice by finding out and experiencing a whole range of meditative approaches including powerful breathing techniques, guided meditations, silent meditation and even transcendental meditation.
